Forecasts

Sunniyra (7/4), Adelisa (2/1), White Pepper (6/1), Venice Biennale (15/2), Alice Kitty (15/2), Mother Country (16/1), Clew Bay (20/1), Annecherie (22/1), Cleopatra's Needle (50/1), Rock On Gurkha (80/1), Special Protector (125/1), Elusive Elegance (150/1), Launch Her (200/1), Simply Sideways (250/1)

ADELISA looks a filly that will continue to progress and she should appreciate the step up to this trip. She's proven on the likely ground and looks the one to beat. Sunniyra shaped well last time at Leopardstown and she shouldn't be far away. Annecherie is also worth consideration for each-way wagers.
